What does this have to do with your position? As a traveller, I'm not afraid to take chances -- calculated risks, if you will. I moved from Michigan to Arkansas in 30 days -- and really didn't know where I was going. But it was a challenge, an adventure. I've built businesses from the ground up, then sold them and moved on. I stay only as long as I am needed. That may be a week or ten years.
